Liars - Angus Andrew, Aaron Hemphill and Julian Gross - announce a UK and European tour in October including London’s Scala on 16th October. The dates follow a run of dates around the release of 'WIXIW' that saw Liars play a series of intimate shows, including Field Day and a riotous sold out XOYO show.
The October UK tour sees Liars performing as a three-piece, and follows the release of their critically acclaimed sixth studio album, 'WIXIW' (pronounced “wish you”), the follow up to 'Sisterworld'. The band then return to Europe for a tour that includes Pitchfork’s Parisian festival on 3rd November.
'WIXIX' was recorded in LA, self-produced by the band with additional production from Daniel Miller and mixed by Tom Biller. It’s an album that is hard to shake, tough to pin down, and impossible to get out of one’s head even after an initial listen. Simultaneously the most accessible and most challenging release from these iconoclasts, it is both a summation of Liars’ work up to now, and a complete break from anything you’d ever heard the band do previously.
Watch a video of Liars talking about Side A of 'WIXIW', track by track and keep your eyes peeled for Side B, coming later this week...
Watch the video for the first single, 'No. 1 Against The Rush' and listen to Vince Clarke and Matmos remixes.
